Yeesh.. good on ya for stopping. Try having some coffees rather than that every so often though - coming down cold turkey from that can suck.

I dont drink coffee.

I quit riding the Red Bull every day... at the height of my problem, I was drinking 2~3 cans a day, suffering dehydration and GI-issues, and then I had slight heart palpitations. I was also spending about $60 a week on it, I bought entire cartons and stocked up when it was on sale. Quitting for the long-term will not only do you good, you will have more money and notice the health benefits later too. It's not an addictive or an abusive habit though, so don't forget that you can still treat yourself to one every now and then. When I've had a really good workout, or reached a big goal, I'll still crack open a Red Bull and enjoy happiness.

This won't be as bad as you think it will be. If you start suffering from feeling flat in your V-downtime, buy some Berocca because it has all the Vitamin B stuff in it. Do that for about a week and wean yourself off it all.

Good luck!

I never liked berocca, taste is eww.

Yep, save that money man! Only stimulants you need in life are love, chocolate, and epinephrin. XD

Hope you can stick to it!

If you want a healthy stimulant, try tea.

You'd be amazed how many calories you drop from your diet if you go straight to water/juice/milk rather than soda/energy drinks.

at my last job, only exercise I got was a 15 min walk to, 4hr always standing shift, 15 min walk from.
I stopped eating so much, not to starve myself but because I ate more than I should have, so eating a more normal amount made me feel quite hungry most of the time, but with all that, I lost a lot of weight and although I had the taste for V, I didn't drink it really at all.

Now, I got the same to and from walk kinda with an 8hr shift, so I tried to eat a more normal amount but didnt seem to do anything. Difference is that this time, im drinking 2+ cans per day at work which is already over the recommended limit of V per day.

Hey goodluck with giving up on that stuff! I never had a taste for those energy drinks, always tasted a bit bleh to me.
